Synthesis and crystal structure of a dioxo heterometallic complex CpWOs3(CO)9(µ-O)2(µ-H)(Cp =η-C5H5)
Abstract
The dioxo complex CpWOs3(CO)9(µ-O)2(µ-H)(Cp =η-C5H5) has been prepared from CpWOs3(CO)12(µ-H) by treatment with Me3NO and then 95% ethanol; the crystal structure has been determined, suggesting the presence of unique bridging oxo ligands.
